METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTHENTICATING PER M2M DEVICE BETWEEN SERVICE PROVIDER AND MOBILE NETWORK OPERATOR

摘要

PURPOSE: A method and an apparatus for authenticating M2M(Machine To Machine) terminal service between a service provider and a mobile network operator are provided to perform M2M terminal service authentication and provide a session key by defining an authentication process between a M2M server and a M2M agent. CONSTITUTION: An M2M terminal and an ASN perform a 3 network entry procedure(300). An authentication process is operated(302). An AAA server constitutes an MDID(M2M Device ID), a KEY1, and an MSPID(M2M Service Provider ID) according to a M2M(Machine To Machine) terminal(304). The AAA(Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) server generates a KEY2 and a H1(306). The AAA server provides an R1, the H1, and the KEY2 to a proxy server or an M2M agent(308). The R1, the H1, a V-OPID(Visited Operator ID), an H-OPID(Home Operator ID), the MDID, and a MAID(M2M Agent ID) are provided to an M2M server(312). The M2M server generates the KEY2, the H2, and the R2(314). The M2M server provides the R2 and the H2 to the proxy server or the M2M agent(316). The proxy server or the M2M agent inspects the H2(318).
